Synopsis "A Year's Travel in Florida: Tales From A Roadtrip Around The Sunshine State"

In May of 2015, Lenny Flank left his St Petersburg FL apartment and set out to live on the road. Over the next five years, he toured most of the continental United States from coast to coast and from border to border. He would move with the weather-going south in winter and north in the summer-and would spend a few weeks in each city, long enough to see everything in the area, before moving on to the next. This travelogue is a chronicle of a portion of that roadtrip. In it he reviews some of the favorite sites that he has visited, and gives a description and historical overview of some of the places that he liked. A few of them are famous tourist destinations; most are known only to the locals. But all have interesting stories to tell. Among them are: a cotton plantation that was owned and managed by a former slave; a secret nuclear fallout bunker built for an American President near his vacation home; a castle built single-handedly from stone blocks by a lovelorn man; the time when Key West seceded from the United States; a duck who survived being shot by a hunter and stuffed into a fridge for two days; a top secret Cold War missile base in the Everglades; an invasive aquarium fish that is destroying Florida's tropical reef habitats; the world's oldest Manatee; the "hollow earth" religious cult that built a commune in Florida; and an odd car that can be driven both on land and in water. So join Lenny as he tours the Sunshine State and visits some of its most unique and little-known places. Illustrated.
